1982 Scarab 38 flat deck, 1985 Boston Whaler with 70hp Mercury
Talking Flat Deck Scarab

Well guys, My Scarab is a 1982 flat deck. Just about everything you can imagine has been done. It started out as the old "Anchored" boat from Mass. The boats city on the back said it was from Boston, but I bought it from a guy in Cape Cod. I replaced the cabin stringer, all the bulk heads, put an enclosed head in it, all the gauges, interior, myself and a buddy painted it, rebuilt the motors, and now finally the whole project is coming to an end. When I get set up I'll post some pictures. If anybody else has a flat deck let me know.

Cool

Does your flat deck have a love seat for you and your "buddy" to ride around in?

As a matter of fact it does. You'd better watch what you say, I think you've sat in that seat once.

I have a 1988 30' Scarab Panther flat deck. What's up this the flat deck design, are they supposed to be the performance models?

Hey Blue Lightning, the flat decks in my opinion looked a little better then the raised decks. Along as you don't mind sacrificing a little head room in the cabin. I used to own a 1988 30 Panther, mine had 330's and bravo's. I did a little head work to the engines and the boat ran quite well. I was just ready to step up to a 38. kaama82

30' Scarab Panther
Hi Kaama... My Panther has 454 mags with high performance aluminum heads. Not sure what it will run this year. Pulled motor number two over the winter and found all kinds of things wrong that would have made it run poor. I believe I was running low to mid seventies at the end of last year and am looking forward to trying her out now that I am firing on all eight in the SB engine. What type of top end could you get with 330s?

Im not sure what is going on,
I received a Email from OSO
saying I had a post on the
board about this topic ?????
To answer your Question, Team
Scarab is owned by Larry Smith
Larry Smith has a agreement with Wellcraft to produce boats using his designs and
the Scarab name.
Team Scarab also produces boats in SoCal but have their
own numbers.
Im sorry if I upset someone,
guess I have to learn this new
system or just stop posting
Questions.
What did I do wrong????
